Dice Silverline iPod interface question???

I am looking to buy a DICE Ipod integration (the one that attaches behind the radio). I have an 06 MCS with H/K sound system. I had the OEM Mini ipod adapter but it did not display song names or artists on the radio display and it also did not allow me to control anything on the ipod while plugged in. My question is: will the Dice ipod integration fix both of these things? Will it display song names/artists on the radio display and allow me to use the controls on the ipod while plugged in?

This is the integration that I am looking at:

It locks the iPod controls though, you can only use the radio or steering wheel controls.
